Long presented as a universal policy-recipe for social prosperity and economic growth, the promise of innovation seems to be increasingly in question, giving way to a new vision of progress in which society is advanced as a central enabler of technoeconomic development. Frameworks such as “Responsible” or “Mission-oriented” Innovation, for example, have become commonplace parlance and practice in the governance of the innovation–society nexus. In this paper, we study the dynamics by which this “social fix” to technoscience has gained legitimacy in institutions of global governance by investigating recent projects at two international organizations, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development and the European Commission, to mainstream “Responsible Innovation” frameworks and instruments across countries. Our analysis shows how the turn to societal participation in both organizations relies on a new deficit logic—a democratic deficit of innovation—that frames a lack of societal engagement in innovation governance as a major barrier to the uptake and dissemination of new technologies. These deficit politics enable global governance institutions to present “Responsible Innovation” frameworks as the solution and to claim authority over the coproduction of particular forms of democracy and innovation as intertwined pillars of a market-liberal international order.

“…ese neoliberal moves within formal education form an economic context within which EN operates; the narrowing of what constitutes learning through such standardization impacts EN's terrain of research. is narrowing through commercialization of assessment instruments goes hand in hand with a more general neoliberal narrowing of student learningfor human capital development (DeLissovoy and Cedillo, 2016;OECD, 2019). Global policy drivers, such as the OECD, shape what counts as cognition and knowledge in education (Maire, 2020).…”

Reimagining Education: The International Science and Evidence Based Education Assessment

E ducational neuroscience (EN) is a complex research eld with a bidirectional relationship between neuroscience and education. The chapter examines the social, cultural, political, ideological and conceptual contexts of EN. One conceptual context for (educational) neuroscience is self-understanding of neuroscience, as a frame for research agendas and dissemination, including a model of explanation (reductionism versus holism) and a model of learning and the learner. When the aim of education is human ourishing, it is important to understand learners in their psychosocial, socioeconomic and sociocultural contexts with the goal of holistic well-being. These contexts shape both the research eld itself and its direct or indirect uses in/as educational practices. The chapter explores the challenges for EN, including those relating to complexity of learning and of translation to the classroom, research and inclusion, and its ethical implications.

“…Fourth, with the commercialisation of BCI devices, driving innovation while protecting the privacy of personal brain data carries significant challenges (Holder et al, 2016 andGarden et al, 2019). Personal brain data might be defined as "data relating to the functioning or structure of the human brain of an identified or identifiable individual that includes unique information about their physiology, health, or mental states" (OECD, 2019a).…”
